Genetic Dissection of Acute Anterior Uveitis Reveals Similarities and Differences in Associations Observed With Ankylosing Spondylitis
AssociationN=14,050Robinson PC et al.(2015)· Arthritis &amp; Rheumatology

Genetic dissection of acute anterior uveitis (AAU) using high-density Immunochip genotyping in 1,711 AAU cases and 10,000 controls identifies HLA-B27 tag SNP rs116488202 (OR=16.8, P<1×10⁻³⁰⁰) as the strongest association, and three genome-wide significant non-MHC loci (IL23R, chromosome 2p15 intergenic region, and ERAP1) shared with ankylosing spondylitis. Five additional suggestive loci including IL10-IL19, IL18R1-IL1R1, IL6R, KIF21B, and EYS are identified, with shared genetic pathways with inflammatory bowel disease suggesting common etiologic mechanisms.

PhD thesis describing comprehensive genome-wide association studies of acute anterior uveitis (AAU) in European (2,752 cases, 3,836 controls) and East Asian (821 cases, 4,898 controls) populations. European descent GWAS identified HLA-B at genome-wide significance plus 11 suggestive loci (ERAP1, NOS2, MERTK). East Asian GWAS identified HLA-B and ERAP1 at genome-wide significance plus 12 suggestive loci (GPR68, RHBDD2). Mendelian randomization confirmed ERAP1 as functionally relevant and showed genetically predicted CRP levels positively associated with AAU risk.
